Caught wind of the Lightning revocation bugs and now I'm side-eyeing my mobile stack. Are phone-based multi-sig wallets actually vulnerable to this stuff, or is it just FUD? Really don't wanna lose my sats over a glitch.

idk what's going on but i've been running a multi-sig setup for months now on my phone and i haven't experienced any revocation issues with lightning payments. might wanna try clearing your wallet's cache or updating to the latest channel manager to see if that resolves the issue.

I've been testing some lightning wallets on my phone and I noticed the revocation bugs you're talking about, but from what I understand it's more of a theoretical risk than an actual one unless you're handling massive amounts of funds or using wallets that don't support revocation delay. Just making sure, but aren't these bugs more related to server-side issues rather than client-side?

I've been using multi-sig wallets on my phone for a while, and never had issues with revocation bugs, but I'm no expert, it's always good to stay on top of these things. Maybe someone who's more into wallet development can chime in and provide a clear answer?

I've been following this thread and just to clarify, the multi-sig wallets aren't directly affected by the revocation bug as they require a quorum of signatures to execute a transaction, but it's still worth keeping an eye on the development to ensure any fixes don't inadvertently introduce vulnerabilities. It's always a good idea to keep your wallet software up to date, and monitor any updates from the developers specifically related to the revocation bug.
